3 Cloud Alternatives to Amazon Web Services (That Aren’t Google or Microsoft)

1

Amazon AWS

This leads directly into perhaps the biggest issue that many businesses have with Amazon Web Services: something that experts dub the “noisy neighbor problem.” When an infrastructure is built on shared resources like Amazon Web Services is, the needs of larger users are essentially prioritized over the needs of smaller ones. While Amazon will do everything in its power to keep Netflix running efficiently, this means that small businesses like yours will suffer more often than not. This also means that smaller organizations are being forced to pay a premium for a service that ultimately gives preference to their much larger brethren — hardly the competitive, state-of-the-art advantage you were promised.
